Well i'm running it with a manual boost controller to steady the boost ,i've gone back to my z4 (with mbc) and i seem to get ther same performance as i did when the 6k was fine although i will rolling road it to be sure.
When i had it r/r the 6k did go lean at high revs for an instance.

this guy has also fitted one and https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-...aight-fit.html

only went a little lean at high revs so everyday driving it should be fine but i did find myself just revving the nuts (not delibrately) of it as it pulled so smoothly and held the boost it was addictive
